The real estate firm has secured approval from SEBI for a Rs 792 crore Initial Public Offering (IPO). In December, the company raised Rs 400 crore by issuing shares at Rs 150 each. The Shah Rukh Khan Family Trust purchased 6.75 lakh shares for Rs 10.1 crore, while Amitabh Bachchan invested Rs 10 crore. Both actors reside in opulent mansions in Mumbai, which are popular tourist destinations, and own various properties across the country.
Anand Pandit recently discussed his real estate business with SCREEN, attributing his inspiration to Amitabh Bachchan’s film Trishul. “I have grown up watching Amitabh Bachchan’s films. His film, Trishul, really inspired me and motivated me to leave Ahmedabad and move to Mumbai. And I also wanted to have my own Shanti Construction Company, and fortunately today I have made Sri Lotus Developers. His character Vijay inspired me to be where I am today. It is all because of Bachchan sahab,” he said.
Pandit also mentioned that in 2013, he bought the property next to Amitabh Bachchan’s house, Jalsa, for Rs 50 crore, and later sold it to the star when he wanted to expand his property. “I was an ardent fan who had grown up watching his films and a twist of fate then made me his neighbour when I bought a bungalow next to his. I eventually ended up selling it back to him and that is when we grew closer,” he said.
At a recent birthday party for Anand, Shah Rukh Khan humorously remarked that Pandit owns a significant portion of Mumbai. “In the night, at 12-1 am, he comes visits me and we roam around Juhu. He doesn’t tell me, ‘This is my building, that is my building.’ Instead, in the two-kilometre drive, he tells me barring two to three buildings, all buildings are his. Our journey becomes easy,” Shah Rukh said.
